Before Tuesday's draw, Craig Robertson, Baffert’s lawyer, confirmed an agreement with the Maryland Jockey Club that would allow Medina Spirit and Concert Tour to enter the Preakness.

In a letter to Alan Rifkin, an attorney for the Maryland Jockey Club, Robertson wrote Baffert consented to blood testing, monitoring and medical record reviews for Medina Spirit, Concert Tour and Beautiful Gift. The latter is entered in Friday’s Black-Eyed Susan Stakes at Pimlico.


Totally disagree with letting Medina Spirit and Concert Tour in this race because now the story is all about Baffert, cheating, drugs, etc....If either of them win it will just continue a very bad story all the way to the Belmont.

Lets hope He doesn't win and this will at least temporarily subside for a while. Would be nice if the jocks say they won't ride for him too.

I despise Baffert but we’re starting to enter la la land here. Whether or not Baffert has a horse in the race the story was going to be all about him. Jocks are still going to ride for him.

Until owners start pulling horses from him and he gets a real punishment....this will be another blip on the radar.

Following Sea being moved out of his barn was a pretty big loss for him.
